\(A\) \(=\dfrac{bh}{2}\)
\(bh\) \(=2A\)
\(\therefore\ h\) \(=\dfrac{2A}{b}\)

 
\(\Rightarrow C\)

`4.76`

Show Worked Solution

`text(Make)\ \ y\ \ text(the subject:)`

♦♦ Mean mark 32% (Std1).

`C` `= (A(y + 1))/24`
`24C` `= A(y + 1)`
`y + 1` `= (24C)/A`
`y` `= (24C)/A – 1`
  `= (24 xx 120)/500 – 1`
  `= 4.76`

Which of the following correctly expresses `y` as the subject of the formula  `3x-4y-1 = 0`?

  1.  `y = 3/4 x-1`
  2.  `y = 3/4 x + 1`
  3.  `y = (3x-1)/4`
  4.  `y = (3x + 1)/4`

Which of the following correctly expresses `Q` as the subject of  `e = iR + Q/C`?

  1. `Q = Ce + CiR`
  2. `Q = Ce-CiR`
  3. `Q = (e + iR)/C`
  4. `Q = (e-iR)/C`

`=> B`

Show Worked Solution
`e` `= iR + Q/C`
`Q/C` `= e-iR`
`:. Q` `= C(e-iR)`
  `= Ce-CiR`

The formula  `C = 5/9 (F-32)`  is used to convert temperatures between degrees Fahrenheit `(F)` and degrees Celsius `(C)`.

Convert 3°C to the equivalent temperature in Fahrenheit.   (2 marks)

`37.4\ text(degrees)\ F`

Show Worked Solution
`C` `= 5/9(F-32)`
`F-32` `= 9/5C`
`F`  `= 9/5C + 32`

 
`text(When)\ \ C = 3,`

`F` `= (9/5 xx 3) + 32`
  `= 37.4\ text(degrees)\ F`

Which of the following correctly expresses  `T`  as the subject of  `B = 2pi (R + T/2)`?

  1. `T = B/pi-2R`
  2. `T = B/pi-R`
  3. `T = 2R-B/pi`
  4. `T = B/(4pi)-R/2`
Show Answers Only

`A`

Show Worked Solution
`B` `= 2pi (R + T/2)`
`B/(2pi)` `= R + T/2`
